Asynchronous Deflection with Transient Buffers
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate experimentally several routing algorithms for asynchronous deflection networks, i.e., ones that operate in an unslotted manner. We determine the impact of an extra input buffer space on the quality of routing decisions. Finally, we compare the performance of asynchronous and synchronous deflection networks.

Bufferless and Minimally-Buffered Deflection Routing
A conventional Network-on-Chip (NoC) router uses input buffers to store in-flight packets. These buffers improve performance, but consume significant power. It is possible to bypass these buffers when they are empty, reducing dynamic power, but static buffer power remains, and when buffers are utilized, dynamic buffer power remains as well. To improve energy efficiency, bufferless deflection ro...
متن کاملPerformance comparison between Optical Burst Switching and Deflection Routing
Optical packet-switched networks of the near future will likely use no or very small number of optical buffers. We compare the delay-throughput performance of deflection routing and optical burst switching because both do not require the use of optical buffers. Simulations show that the simple packet drop-andretransmit contention resolution strategy of optical burst switching has a better perfo...
متن کاملBuffer Space Tradeoffs for VoIP QoS in Deflection Networks
We consider the issue of QoS (Quality of Service) in a network catering to isochronous VoIP (Voice over IP) sessions. Our simulation experiments strongly suggest that the single–path paradigm of implementing network–layer virtual circuits neither yields the best utilization of network resources (buffer space) nor is it able to provide the best end-to-end service in terms of loss rate and delay....
متن کاملOn the asynchronous nature of the asynchronous π-calculus⋆
We address the question of what kind of asynchronous communication is exactly modeled by the asynchronous π-calculus (πa). To this purpose we define a calculus πB where channels are represented explicitly as special buffer processes. The base language for πB is the (synchronous) π-calculus, except that ordinary processes communicate only via buffers. Then we compare this calculus with πa. It tu...
متن کاملPerformance analysis of optical burst switched node with deflection routing
As the optical network evolves from static long haul connection provider to an adaptive and “smart” backbone solution, Optical Burst Switching (OBS) becomes an attractive scheme for its flexibility and efficiency. However, how to reduce data loss is a crucial issue in such an asynchronous and one way reservation system. In this paper, we study one contention resolution strategy in OBS networks:...
